Campylobacter enteritis is caused by either of two species of the Campylobacter bacterium. The bacterium is ubiquitous in uncooked poultry. Symptoms (diarrhea, fever, chills, headache) arise 2 to 11 days after exposure and last one to two weeks.

Campylobacter enteritis is responsible for 10% to 25% of cases and is associated with a more severe and permanent form of GBS. In this subset of patients, the axon itself is affected as well as the myelin sheath.
